Association to Sponsor Nation-wide Sales Drive this Month Business College Honor Society On Ihe Hillside > cD’iri'.*. Kt.c. w pEta* oiiiii'am o«t C!«. cij'iiuii noii uiiiicu tun By GLORIA SNIPES Hello, everybody. Here I am, back on the scene with the Hiflsitle n^chine. This past week has been a most exciting and oentful one. - On Thursday, October 25, Hillside was surprised with a visit frona The Honorable Jason Seqdwe, vice premier of the Republic of the. Congo. Mr. Sendwe visited the North Car olina Mutual Life Insurance Company prior to coming to Hillside. He-addressed the audience in his native language, French and his message was translhted by an interpreter from Washing ton, D. C. He was welcomed warmly by the students and faculty of Hillside. A special pombined Charities Drive was held at Hillside on Octolaer 26. The "Oscar” was presented to the 12-4 homeroom class for collecting the highest amount of money in the drive. Even though 12-4 won, eon gratulations should be extended to everyone who was generous enough to give to those less fortunate than themselves. Speaking of giving, several members of HHS are participat ing in the collection of money for the UNICEIF drive. This is a worthy organization. Please support it, everyone. On Saturday, October 27, Hillside played host to Dudley High of Greensboro. The eve of this game was designated as “Lat)or Night.’ Tribute was paid to various labor unions and tobacco factories. The Hillside band performed at the half, fornn^ng the letters L aod M and L. S. for the two brands of cigarettes. Tlie Dudley High band also performed at half- tinne. The Hornets were victor ious with a score of 33-20. Getting to the less •erious side, it has become quite ob vious that Charles S. has be- comie very popular around HHS. Isn’t that right, Barbara? Isn’t it a coincidence that Victoria Lyons and Paul Lyons have' the same last names? May be it will mean something. Who Knows? Well, that’s all for now. So long, everybody. •Eight students were inducted Into the Delta Beta Chi honor so ciety at the Durham Business Col lege recently. ■ New members include Bettye Blue, Loraine Hardy, Isaac Dar den, Susie Hatchett.

S. families who are insured by Negro-manag- ed companies. Their purpose is to give free advice. Some ot them will sell impor tant amounts of life Insurance because salesmen do not refuse ^offers' to buy, and maity of the people they visit will apply for inci'cases in their present life in surance.
